Aiden Buzzetti: Bad teachers 'make children ideological slaves'



Aiden Buzzetti is the president of the 1776 Project, and he believes parents need to take their child’s education into their own hands.

“It’s important to realize that not every teacher is bad, but the ones that are bad disregard all of the rules. They want to make children their ideological slaves,” Buzzetti tells James Poulos, adding, “This trend cannot continue.”

This creates a never-ending cycle, as the children who’ve been indoctrinated will grow up to be teachers who indoctrinate.

“It seems like they’ve built a perpetual-motion machine,” Poulos notes.

Buzzetti and the 1776 Project have been working to change the political landscape of school boards in order to stop this.

“Right now, especially here in Texas, where we’ve done a fair amount of elections — the school boards were dominated by progressive parent groups,” Buzzetti explains. “If you have a group of parents who are willing to stand shoulder-to-should with you and make the case that something needs to change, you’re actually laying the groundwork for something substantive.”

Though 80% of kids in America attend public schools, there’s been an explosion in alternative schooling options across America.

“There’s more opportunities for parents to go to private schools, or charter schools and religious schools, even one of the classical Christian associations had their membership triple over the course of the pandemic,” Buzzetti explains. “That means parents are taking their kids out of a public school and seeing what their options are.”

However, Buzzetti believes it's extremely important to continue to fight for change within the public school system and not abandon it.

“It’s important that we stand firm on public schools, that we don’t necessarily abandon them,” he says.

This NFL player says he doesn’t want WHITE PEOPLE teaching his kids...



Former Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton, who is currently a free agent, apparently has a problem with white people teaching his seven children.

Jason Whitlock plays the video of Newton explaining his issues with the private schools he sends his kids to.

"Something alarming happened when my daughter came home. ... She said, 'Dad, a white person is teaching us about black history,' and I was like, 'Yo, that's not right,'" Newton said.

“If a white person is teaching about black history, can a black person teach about Caucasian history [or] European history?” he asked. “You could, but there's gonna be some things that are left out,” like “slavery [and] how Africans moved to America.”

One of Newton’s interviewers had her own bit to add. “They’re not letting black teachers…” she trailed off, insinuating that black educators are being barred from teaching in schools.

“Black teachers have been banned, and white teachers don't teach about slavery, and Cam Newton has no responsibility to teach his own kids about history,” sighs Whitlock in staunch disagreement with Newton’s perspective.

“Black professors or teachers certainly can teach European history,” adds Delano Squires, who agrees that Newton should assume the responsibility of teaching his children about history.

“I think all of this colorized history is a mistake. ... We just need to teach American history, and that should be universal to everybody,” says Whitlock.

Squires, however, does find value in teaching black history specifically.

“There are certain facts of history — a certain battle took place on this particular day, a certain event took place on another day — but the perspective on those issues is very much different,” he explains. “Consider how different ... the death of George Floyd will be taught in schools 50 years from now, depending on whether you have a teacher who has, let's say, more pro-law enforcement leanings as opposed to one who has more pro-BLM leanings.”

Both types of teachers will convey that “yes, this man died on this particular day, but how he died, how they characterize it, [and] the terms that they use will be very much different, depending on who shapes the narrative,” he tells Whitlock.
